▶︎▶︎ World's First Programmed Shutter | Fujica 35 Auto-M
In 1962, the Japanese camera industry was on the cusp of automatic exposure (EE).
The Fujica 35 Auto-M emerged, boasting the world's first "Copal Magic Programmed Shutter."
This was more than just shutter priority; when the ambient light exceeded the aperture's coupling range,
the camera's purely mechanical internal logic would "force compensate," automatically adjusting your shutter speed.
This incredibly complex calculation was entirely driven by the selenium photocell next to the lens,
achieving true "zero-power full automation." It was Fuji's hardcore romance with pure mechanical craftsmanship in the '60s.
▶︎▶︎ Fujinon-R 47mm F2.8 | The Fuji Eye of High Resolution
Equipped with the classic Fujinon-R 47mm F2.8 lens.
The 47mm focal length offers a wider perspective than the standard 50mm,
making it exceptionally suited for street photography. Its optical resolution is sharp, and the tonal transitions retain Fuji's signature warm and mellow color rendition.
Coupled with a high-precision rangefinder (RF) with a bright focusing patch, focusing is exceptionally accurate.
Furthermore, the camera features Fuji's unique "bottom-loading film advance lever" design,
which is ergonomic and provides a remarkably crisp mechanical feel for continuous shooting and film advancement.
▶︎▶︎ Magic! Pure Magic | Super Automation
Flip open the April 1962 issue of "Asahi Camera" magazine,
and you'll find contemporary advertisements and reviews describing its automation as "like performing magic." The ad copy confidently proclaimed: "You don't need to touch the aperture or shutter at all!"
